{{first_name|Hey}},
I want to talk about pricing for a second.
Not in the abstract way people usually do, where everyone agrees you should "charge your worth" and then nothing changes. In the real way.
Here's the pattern I've seen across dozens of brands and businesses: the offer is actually good. The problem is how it's structured. The buyer can't figure out what they're paying for, what they'll get out of it, or why this version costs more than the one down the street. So they hesitate. They compare. They negotiate. Or they just leave.
I spent years walking into companies leave millions on the table not because their product was wrong but because their offer was a mess. Value buried in jargon. Pricing that punished the buyer for saying yes. Deliverables that sounded impressive but didn't connect to outcomes. These were billion-dollar brands with entire teams dedicated to this. They still got it wrong.
As a solopreneur, the stakes hit differently. Your momentum depends on every conversation landing. The good news: you can restructure your offer in an afternoon. No agency. No committee. No 6-week engagement.
This week's prompts are built to pressure-test your offer before you promote it.
This Week's Select Prompts: Build an Offer That Closes
Prompt 1: The Outcome Audit
"Here's my current offer: [describe it]. Now act as a potential buyer hearing this for the first time. Tell me: what outcome am I promising, and is that outcome specific enough to make a decision on? If the answer is 'not really,' rewrite the offer statement so the outcome is clear and concrete."
The CMO take: Most offers describe what you do. Buyers want to know what changes for them. These are not the same thing. "Six weeks of coaching" is what you do. "A repeatable content system you can run in under an hour a day" is what changes. The second one closes. The first one raises questions.
Run this prompt cold, without over-explaining your offer first. The response will show you exactly what a first-time reader sees, which is usually not what you intended. That gap is the opportunity.
Prompt 2: The Price Anchor Test
"I charge [your price] for [your offer]. Here's what's included: [list deliverables]. Without knowing my competitors, does this pricing feel anchored to a clear outcome, or does it feel arbitrary? If it feels arbitrary, what information is missing that would make the price feel like an obvious exchange of value?"
The CMO take: Pricing anxiety is almost always a signal problem, not a value problem. When buyers push back on price, they're usually saying "I don't understand why this costs what it costs." The fix isn't lowering the number. It's adding the context that makes the number make sense. This prompt finds the gap between what you're charging and what you're communicating. Most people haven't closed that gap yet. This is how you do it.
Prompt 3: The One-Sentence Sell
"Help me write one sentence that explains my offer in a way a skeptic would find hard to argue with. The sentence should name the specific person I help, the specific outcome they get, and what makes my approach different from the obvious alternatives. Here's my offer: [describe it]."
The CMO take: The offers that convert fastest are the ones that can be explained in a single sentence. This prompt forces that constraint. The key phrase is "what a skeptic would find hard to argue with." That instruction moves the output from marketing language to credibility language. Those are different, and credibility is what converts.
Test the output as your bio link headline. If it gets clicks, your offer is working.
Every headline satisfies an opinion. Except ours.
